Solving First-Order Linear Differential Equations
Exercises 2.3: Linear Equations
The following problems involve finding the integrating factor, solving the differential equation, and identifying the transient term, where applicable, for first-order linear ordinary differential equations (ODEs) of the form $y’ + P(x)y = Q(x)$ or similar forms.
Equation: $y’ – 0y = 0$
The integrating factor is $e^{\int 0 dx} = e^{0x} = 1$.
The equation becomes $\frac{d}{dx}[1 \cdot y] = 0$.
Solution: $y = c$. The domain is $-\infty < x < \infty$. There is no transient

The Derivative and Integral Definitions
The Derivative Definition
The derivative of a function $f(x)$, denoted $f'(x)$, is defined using the limit of the difference quotient:
$$f'(x) = \lim_{h \to 0} \frac{f(x+h) – f(x)}{h}$$
The Definite Integral (Riemann Sum)
The definite integral of $f(x)$ from $a$ to $b$ is defined as the limit of the Riemann sum:
$$\int_a^b f(x) dx = \lim_{n \to \infty} \sum_{i=1}^n f(x_i^*) \Delta x$$

1. Proving the Tangent Sum and Difference Identity
Identity to Prove:
\tan (x+y) + \tan (x-y) = \frac{\sin (2x)}{\cos (2y) – \cos (2x)}
Proof Steps
Start with the Left-Hand Side (LHS) using the definition of tangent:
\tan (x+y) + \tan (x-y) = \frac{\sin (x+y)}{\cos (x+y)} + \frac{\sin (x-y)}{\cos (x-y)}
Combine the fractions:
= \frac{\sin (x+y)\cos (x-y) + \sin (x-y)\cos (x+y)}{\cos (x+y)\cos (x-y)}
Using the Sine Addition Formula, $\sin(A+B) = \sin A \cos B + \cos A \sin B$:
= \frac{\sin [ (x+y) + (x-y)

Learning Trajectory for Length Measurement
E1: Initial Unit Placement
Places the units from end to end. May not recognize the need for units of the same length or may not be able to measure if there are fewer units than necessary. Can use rulers with substantial guidance.
E2: Ordering and Seriation of Lengths
Orders lengths, marked from 1 to 6 units. Understands, at least intuitively, that any set of objects of different lengths can be placed in a series that is always increasing (or decreasing) in
